Care Instructions
Proper care will preserve the look and feel of your suede trainers:
- Daily Cleaning: After each wear, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently brush off any loose dirt or dust. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks or scuffs, gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaning solution. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently dab the stain. Follow the specific instructions provided with your suede cleaner. Avoid using water directly or submerging the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the suede.
- Protection: Regularly reapply a suede protector spray (every few months or after cleaning) to maintain water and stain resistance.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use.
